I installed Maintainerr today but tile in sparkbox is linked incorrectly. Using my IP address and port works correctly. i have installed maintainerr and i get a error when trying to connect, Unable to connect Firefox can’t connect to the server at ma.fr-be.ts.net:6246 What can you do about it? The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection. If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web. Maintainerr itself is fine. The container is up and healthy, and the box publishes port 6246. Your browser just can't reach it at that address. Two likely causes: You're typing a domain. Maintainerr isn't behind the reverse proxy, so ma.fr-be.ts.net won't route to it. Use the box's LAN address instead: http://192.168.5.:6246. Friendly .home.arpa names are off on this box, so the IP is the way in.

Sorry the Maintainerr tile sent you to an address that won't open. Thanks for the detail, it helps. Here is how it is meant to work. The Access button on the Maintainerr card opens either a private Tailscale link or a domain behind the SparkBox proxy, and SparkBox's login page comes first. On a standard install, port 6246 is only open on the box itself and not on your home network, so an address made from the box's IP plus that port working for you means that port is set up differently on your box. Two things would tell us which path is failing: 1. Does the address the Access button opens start with https or http, and which port does it show? Only the scheme and port, please, not the rest of the name. 2. Did you change anything yourself for Maintainerr's address or port? Please don't post full addresses, passwords or setting values here. Also tell me the SparkBox version the Updates page shows.
